Helena stood there with gritted teeth as the Countess made her proclamation.
If she had no other choice, she wouldn't be here right now. Yuri was currently the only way to get what she wanted. The moment she found another way, she'll cut herself off from the woman's plans.
Yuri paused, turning back to look at the assembled vampires.
"Before we continue, I would like to introduce you all to the head of my first coven." She raised her voice slightly. "Enter."
The door opened and a man strode inside.
He was tall and had a broad frame. He was as handsome as every other vampire and had a square jaw. He wore a necklace that projected a transparent barrier in front of him, dispersing the light of the sun and shrouded him in the darkness that came from a lack of light.
He grinned vindictively at Helena as he walked in. He stopped a few feet away from the throne, bowing deeply.
